Mayor Johnston set an ambitious goal of housing 1,000 unsheltered Denverites while permanently closing those encampments by the end of 2023. The strategy relies on making temporary housing resources, like converted hotels and micro-communities, available to people coming from encampments with a robust suite of wraparound services.

According to the 2023 Point in Time count , more than 1,400 Denver residents are unsheltered and living outdoors without access to basic housing and services—a nearly 300% increase since 2019. The strategy relies on four key strategies: Preventing homelessness : allocating funds to rental assistance and eviction prevention programs to keep individuals and families stably housed.

Transitional housing : converting hotels and scaling the implementation of micro-communities that offer trauma informed, individualized spaces with a sense of stability, safety and community. Wraparound services : comprehensive case management, housing navigation, substance misuse, and behavioral, mental and physical health treatment, as well as workforce training and navigation. (The House100 Fund will support these efforts.)

Housing stability : connecting individuals with permanent housing solutions and providing ongoing support as needed. If you have questions about the All In Mile High F und, or if you are a funder interested in supporting these efforts, please contact Joshua Posner , director of strategic initiatives at the Office of the Mayor a t the City and County of Denver.

The Mayor’s Office is placing people from encampments in their micro-communities and shelters. Through this process, the outreach teams identify individuals living in encampments, gets to know them and their needs, pairs them with a housing resource, and helps plan a moving day for the entire encampment.

For individuals not living in one of the encampments, the city is directing those individuals to local congregate shelters here: Find Shelter – City and County of Denver (denvergov. org) information@denverfoundation. org EIN: 84-6048381 | 501(c)(3) If you are human, leave this field blank.
